We are currently processing microphones in real time. It is designed to obtain the frequency through it and to remove the sine wave sound through the notch filter (bandstop filter) for the output frequency. I do not know what code to write to do a notch filter (bandstop filter). Do you have any code or libraries to help?

While ARude's solution is decent, I made this one to be a bit more simple. Also, in the scipy docs the w0 term can be pretty confusing. It says it must be normalized, but it does it for you if you just enter the sampling rate.

I've wrapped such simplifications into the following code, and added a full working example with a fake signal where I remove the 60Hz hum:

from scipy import signal
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

# Create/view notch filter
samp_freq = 1000  # Sample frequency (Hz)
notch_freq = 60.0  # Frequency to be removed from signal (Hz)
quality_factor = 30.0  # Quality factor
b_notch, a_notch = signal.iirnotch(notch_freq, quality_factor, samp_freq)
freq, h = signal.freqz(b_notch, a_notch, fs = samp_freq)
plt.figure('filter')
plt.plot( freq, 20*np.log10(abs(h)))

# Create/view signal that is a mixture of two frequencies
f1 = 17
f2 = 60
t = np.linspace(0.0, 1, 1_000)
y_pure = np.sin(f1 * 2.0*np.pi*t) + np.sin(f2 * 2.0*np.pi*t) 
plt.figure('result')
plt.subplot(211)
plt.plot(t, y_pure, color = 'r')

# apply notch filter to signal
y_notched = signal.filtfilt(b_notch, a_notch, y_pure)

# plot notch-filtered version of signal
plt.subplot(212)
plt.plot(t, y_notched, color = 'r')
